Can the Audi RS 6 Compete With the Nissan GT-R?

We all know bullies don’t play fair. The Nissan GT-R is the bully of the car world. It costs about $100,000, but it offers $250,000-worth of performance, and gives wedgies to just about every other fast car on sale. It’s not fair, and that’s why we love it.

In the video posted below, the Audi RS 6 is placed square in the middle of the GT-R’s crosshairs, but it isn’t eaten alive like last year’s BMW M5.

If the Audi RS 6 were sold in the United States, it would cost about the same (without options) as a Nissan GT-R, and because the GT-R doesn’t completely annihilate the Audi, it would be revered here as a giant-killer with extra cargo space. Are you listening, Audi?

Luckily all is not lost here in America — we can still buy the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Wagon, and that’s more fun to drive than the RS 6, anyway.
